Say a prayer for all the souls in bloom cut downFar too soon under the scarlet moon ...Under the scarlet moon ...Say a prayer ...

So, what are you weaving there marionette Keepin' your balance by a single thread ...Keepin' your heart strings tight and pureAll you can muster and nothing more and nothing moreUntil you're sore and still you're sore when do you soar ...Sometimes justice is the line you walk or sign,But justice is complex and a matter of timeSometimes it's hanging in the balance orDancing in the shadow like a silhouetteSo what are you weaving there marionnette ...So what are you weaving there marionnette ...Say a prayer for all the souls in bloom cut downFar too soon under the scarlet moonSay a prayer, go on say a prayer ...

Some people get a sadness so longThey just go on thinking it's a natural thingSome people throw their hands in the skyAnd they wonder why god don't replyWell it's strange, strange time all our friendsDropping like flies everything that's come to passAll the time we thought would last.Well I'll just button my coat and cover my neckI got barely enough time to catch my breath ...All these pictures I can't forget ...It can fill your cup with regret ...It can fill your cup with regretSay a prayer, for all the souls in bloom ...Say a prayer... Say a prayer ...
